News from PUMA Ocean Racing
When the PUMA Ocean Racing powered by BERG Propulsion team crossed the
finish line of the Transatlantic Race 2011, they were thrilled. Light
winds on the final day caused them to inch towards the end, and the sound
of the horn came as a relief. Little did they know they would walk away
with four trophies.

At the race prizegiving ceremony in Cowes, England, last night, PUMA’s Mar
Mostro skipper Ken Read was on hand to accept the awards. The Queen’s Cup,
the trophy for the IRC Overall winner, was presented to Read by Her Royal
Highness Princess Anne. The PUMA crew was also honored with the Cape May
Trophy for the win in IRC Class 1, the New York Yacht Club’s top yacht
trophy, and the team trophy from the Storm Trysail Club, which is awarded
to the top team in the race. PUMA’s Mar Mostro joined Snow Lion (IRC3,
skipper Lawrence Huntington) as a two-boat team.
